Chris Lane: Finding Faith in the Detours & Staying Grounded in the Spotlight

Country artist Chris Lane joins Brooke Taylor on The Upload for a candid, faith-filled conversation about the unexpected injuries, detours, and divine redirection that shaped his life long before music stardom. Chris opens up about tearing his ACL in high school—and again in college—an experience that sidelined his dreams of playing sports but sparked a life-changing relationship with the Lord. What felt like devastation at the time became the quiet space God used to draw him close, heal his heart, and prepare him for a future he couldn’t yet see. Now a husband, dad, and touring musician, Chris shares honestly about this new season where his time feels “wrecked”—changing diapers at home, performing on the road, and fighting to keep Jesus at the center of it all. He talks about the conviction he feels to carve out time with God, how fatherhood has deepened his understanding of Christ’s love, and how marriage wasn’t even on his radar until he met his wife, Lauren. Their shared faith became the foundation of their relationship—especially significant given Lauren’s upbringing in Portland, one of the least churched major cities in America. Chris also gets real about navigating fame in an industry that can inflate the ego. He talks about praying for humility, wanting success but not at the cost of his walk with Christ, and the ways God is teaching him patience in every area of life. 🎧 Listen now for an encouraging, down-to-earth conversation about faith, humility, family, and finding God’s purpose in the detours.
